When you receive your new skin it will be rolled up to prevent it from creasing. Allow a few minutes for it to flatten out completely.

Center the skin over your wakeboard and tape it to a flat surface to prevent movement. Make sure it is exactly how you want it positioned on the wakeboard.

Working your way from the center of the board outward, use a squeegee (or a smooth, flat edged item) to work out air bubbles between the skin and your board.
